A RAGMAN WAS THE GUY WHO WOULD COME AND COLLECT RAGS IN HIS HORSE AND BUGGY AROUND TOWN BACK IN THE EARLY 1900'S . HE WOULD COLLECT AND RECYCLE RAGS. BACK IN THE DAYS OF THE DEPRESSION  RECYCLING WAS  WAY AHEAD OF IT'S TIME. IT WAS THE ULTIMATE THREAT FROM MOM BESIDES THE ONE "WAIT UNTIL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME". THE OLD SAYING "WE ARE GONNA GIVE YOU TO THE RAGMAN" SURELY SCARED ANY "LITTLE SHITE" THAT WAS ACTING UP.

  WELL THIS "RAGMAN" IS A WHOLE NEW BREED OF RAGMEN. WE SELL EVERYTHING CELTIC, IRISH OR GAELIC WE CAN DREAM UP. BEING FROM THE BOSTON AREA BRINGS TO MIND THE CELTIC BASKETBALL TEAM. BUT THE CELTS WERE AN ANCIENT AND NOBLE PEOPLE AND ALOT OF OUR ANCESTORS ARE CELTS. BE IT IRISH , SCOTTISH, WELSH OR WHATEVER, WE ARE ALL CELTS.  THEIR ART FORMS ARE NOT LIKE ANYTHING OUT THERE.

   THERE ARE SIX NATIONS OF CELTIC ORIGINS. THOSE BEING SCOTLAND, IRELAND, WALES. MANN, CORNWALL AND BRITTANY. EACH HAS IT'S OWN UNIQUE FORM OF CELTIC LANGUAGE. ALL VERY DIFFERENT DIALECTS TO BE SURE. 

  THE CELTS TRAVELED AND LIVED IN A TRIBAL FORM.  THERE WARRIORS SERVED AS MERCENARIES IN MANY ARMIES OF THE PERIOD. THEY ARE AN ANCIENT  GROUP DATING BACK TO ROMAN TIMES AND BEYOND.

   NOT TO BORE YOU WITH ANCIENT HISTORY HERE...LETS MOVE ON TO THE "KELTICRAGMAN". WE WILL TRY AND CARRY AND CREATE UNIQUE , DIFFERENT IRISH AND CELTIC ITEMS OF CLOTHING , HATS STICKERS PINS ETC .

  I TRULY HOPE THIS IS NOT A BORING OLD  RUN OF THE MILL IRISH MERCH PAGE. OUR FIREFIGHTER SIDE OF THE "RAGMAN" HAS THE ORIGINAL "FIR NA TINE"  ITEMS THAT I CREATED BACK IN 1990. I WISH I TRADEMARKED THE EXPRESSION AS IT IS ON A VAST AMOUNT OF TEES AND PEOPLE ARE TATTOOING IT ON THEMSELVES EVERYWHERE. BEWARE THE "FAKE" IRISH WHO TRY AND SELL YOU A MEN OF FIRE TEE (YUP THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS). EVERYONE , WHETHER  THEY ARE IRISH OR NOT WILL TRY AND SELL YOU SOMETHING WITH ANY LOGO THEY CAN COME UP WITH THE EXPRESSION ON IT. JUST THINK.."THAT'S HOT" AND "FIR NA TINE"....CRAP ME AND PARIS WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO CHAT ABOUT AT THE NEXT YUPPIE COCKTAIL PARTY. WE COULD COMPARE STOCK PORTFOLIOS.  SHOULDA TRADEMARKED IT...DAMN IT! WOULDN'T HAVE TO SELL TEES JUST LIVE OFF THEE ROYALTIES.

  MY IRISH FIRE DEPARTMENT ITEMS , SUCH AS SCALLY CAPS, BASEBALL CAPS, STICKERS, PINS , TEES AND SWEATS WILL NOW AND ALWAYS BE DIFFERENT FROM THE USUAL NAVY BLUE ALL US JAKES WEAR DAY IN AND DAY OUT. I WANT AND HAVE ALWAYS WANTED MY FIRE GOODS TO BE COLORFUL AND GREAT LOOKING. MY IRISH AND CELTIC SIDE OF THE WEB PAGE WILL BE THE SAME WAY  AS YOU WILL SEE.

WELL ENOUGH BSing . THE MORE I KEEP YOU HERE THE LESS TIME YOU WILL HAVE TO SHOP THE PAGE...ENJOY  KICK BACK, HAVE A PINT, A  BIT OF THE "WEE BUSH"  ..OOPS SORRY THATS BUSHMILLS TO ALL YOU NOVICE  IRISHMEN OUT THERE AND BROWSE AT YOUR LEISURE. HOPE YA LIKE WHAT YA SEE   AND TELL YOUR MATES ABOUT THE  KELTICRAGMAN.COM.
